Frank had the most unusual career of the three Hearne brothers, playing both for England against South Africa, and for South Africa against England. In 1891-2, he represented South Africa against a side that contained his two brothers and his cousin JT. A short man, Hearne was a solid batsman with a strong defence and a range of attacking shots, favouring the off-side. He also occasionally bowled fast round-arm. He toured South Africa in 1888-89, playing in two Tests, and subsequently decided to settle there (mainly for health reasons), leaving Kent and playing for Western Province. As well as playing in the Test of 1891-2, he also returned to England with the South African tourists of 1894, and played in the 1895-6 return tour to South Africa (DL 2000).
